    Good archery supply stores over the line in Washington?

    Setting up my own bow shop for myself so I can do all my own bow maintenance and tuning at home myself, gathering the items I need but Canadian have a poor selection for some stuff.

    Anybody know some good archery supply stores I could drive to in the states?

    Depends on how far you want to drive . You could check out Spokan Valley Archery ( Podium Archer) he’s about 4 hours from the border. Another option is get someone like Boormans just order in what you need. They got me an LCA press when I needed it.

    Just order the equipment online (Lancaster Archery, AliExpress has a decent looking bowpress, etc) and have it shipped to your house. Most any of the archery tools should cross the border without issue if you can't source them in Canada.

    This is probably what i'll have to end up doing lancaster always has it all, or get a store up here to order it all in like already mentioned, just wanted to avoid border AND shipping fees the cost ends up being ridiculous

    Get a PO Box in Blaine for $15
    Even if you only use it once, it pays for itself.
    Think, don't just have thoughts.

    Good advice from Livewire.

    If you don’t go that route and order it to your door, do NOT use UPS for cross border shipping.
    They are criminals.

    There’s a couple shops out of Ontario I believe, possibly others as well that are dealers for Lancaster. Shooters Choice and Archers Nook are both dealers if I am not mixed up on it. Whether they have what you need in stock or not is the question. I think there is a list on Lancaster's site where you can find their dealer list.

    Good archery shops in Canada are sparse and generally not located conveniently to many of us, so ordering and shipping for most stuff is the norm unless what you can find on the shelf fills the need.

    Was actually able to get it all shipped from 2 canadian sources besides my serving tool, so that was good. Pockets took a seriously brutal hit though, at least I can do everything here now myself. You cant rely on the shops and tuning yourself is just not even comparable, since a buddy helped me start doin it last year its just night and day
